At this time, the door of the kindergarten opened, and the parents queuing outside the door rushed in, and I also got up from the bench and said to Tang Jin: "Give me time to think about it, and I will give you an answer tomorrow at the latest." ”

Tang Jin was not in a hurry, nodded and responded calmly. I said goodbye to him at the school gate and walked into the school gate to pick up the rice grains.

In fact, I had already made a decision in my heart when I asked Tang Jin to come to the park to talk, but I had to determine a few things before making a decision, and now basically what I should know has been answered, I can actually immediately accept the invitation of Tang Jin, but from the perspective of negotiation skills, I should slow down first.

After receiving the rice grain from the teacher, I listened absentmindedly to the rice grain's lecture, and thought that it was because of the rice grain that I made this decision. Originally, I had no intention of taking the old path of a lawyer again, I just wanted to live a stable life and accompany Mi Li to grow up.

But the reality is unpredictable, I never thought that one day Zhou Yu would come to my army!

The point is that he wants to ask me for custody of Mi Li, and I will definitely disagree, so I will go to court. If he had hired Tang Jin as a defense lawyer first, then I would have lost 100% of Mi Li's custody under my disadvantage.

People like Tang Jin can't be friends and don't be enemies. I can lose anything else, but I can't lose.

So I have to strike first and pull Tang Jin into my camp.

In contact with Tang Jin, the benefit may not be current, but it must not be friendship. Since he said that there is a clear distinction between public and private, then I don't need to consider Yang Jing's connections, and I gave Tang Jin a positive response that night.

He said: I hope we have a happy cooperation.

This matter was not delayed for half a minute, and the next day I sent rice grains to school and met with Tang Jin, and the two of them divided their labor from registration to the venue. Within a week, the firm was established, and then I signed a contract with Tang Jin.

This time, I took the contract back and analyzed it word by word, and only after confirming that there were no legal loopholes did I officially sign it.

Tang Jin smiled and asked, "Are you still afraid that I will set you up?" Rest assured, after working with me for a long time, you will find that I am a good boss, try to give your employees the space to display their talents, and of course, for the benefit of employees. ”

I shrugged my shoulders and said to him, "Then get a benefit for your first employee." ”

"What?"

"Fight a civil dispute case for me."

Tang Jin's eyes showed interest after listening to what I said, "You want me to help you fight for the custody of your son?" With Zhou? ”

Knowing what he meant by asking, Yang Jing must have explained my background when he asked him to come back before, but he must have said that I was a single mother, but now Zhou Yu suddenly appeared to fight with me for custody, which may have refreshed his three views.

Fighting a lawsuit with his previous client is something he rarely encounters.

I didn't want to explain too much, so I just nodded in the affirmative: "That's right, it's with him." At present, he will fight with me for custody on the grounds that I cannot afford to raise my son, but this can be easily broken. "Now I have broken this game, but since Zhou Yu has chosen a showdown, he will definitely not have this only move, and he must have a back hand.

Tang Jin asked, "Do you want your own case to be the first of our firm?" Do it myself? ”

I nodded.

But he said, "Then you have to tell me the cause and what happened to me." ”

I frowned and hesitated, "Must I say it?" Tang Jin said: "If there is a hidden situation and I don't know, it is difficult to guarantee whether the opposing lawyer will point out the arguments that I don't know." If you really want to win this case, my advice is to tell me in every detail that from the moment I become your defense lawyer, we are on the same side, and you have to trust me. ”

I said the same thing to my client, and now I'm in the opposite role again.

It is inevitable to be sad, but I am even more hesitant, so I said to Tang Jin: "You let me think about it." ”

On this day, I picked up rice grains and went home from school, and as soon as I walked downstairs to the apartment, I saw Zhou Yu's familiar black car parked there, and he was leaning on the car door smoking a cigarette after not seeing him for more than a week, obviously waiting for me.

When he saw us approaching, he threw his freshly lit cigarette on the ground and trampled it out, and then walked straight up.

Mi Li first complained dissatisfiedly: "Uncle, it's not right for you to litter everywhere. ”

Zhou Yu looked back at the cigarette butt on the ground, and said with a smile: "It's my uncle's mistake, I'll pick it up and throw it in the trash in a while." Mi Li nodded thoughtfully, and commented like a little adult: "It should be." ”

Then the atmosphere was stagnant, and Mi Li didn't know the subtlety between adults, so he pulled Zhou Yu's pants with a smile and asked, "Uncle, can you take me to eat roast duck today?" ”

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "Of course you can, but does your mother agree?" ”

Mi Li looked back at me, "Mom? Are we going to eat roast duck? ”

"During the day, my mother bought Australian prawns, how about we grill them at home?" After I made a suggestion, Mi Li's eyes lit up, and after swallowing his saliva, he said eagerly, "I want to eat prawns, let's go back quickly." ”

He took me by the hand and walked into the apartment, completely forgetting the proposal he had just made with Zhou Yu.

After taking a few steps, I heard Zhou Yu say in the back: "Jia Ru, this is useless. ”

I paused, waiting for him to continue.

Zhou Yu said slowly: "Knowing that you have settled in Tang Jin's law firm, do you think that hiring Tang Jin as a defense lawyer can help you?" There is more than one lawyer in this world, and the key depends on who has more chips in his hand. ”

When I turned around, I saw his gaze fall on Mi Li, "You said that if the child's mother had been stained, who would the judge be more biased in?" I narrowed, "Stains? ”

"Isn't it? Even if a public official is suspended for taking bribes during the trial, your resignation is the best proof of this. Rice grains are young and should grow up in an environment that is both physically and mentally healthy. ”

I shouldn't be angry, but when I heard him finally say that rice grains should grow up in a healthy and healthy environment, my heart couldn't suppress the flames, "I have been giving birth to rice grains for more than three years to today, others may be qualified to say this about me, but you Zhou Yu are not qualified!" Where have you been all these years, have you done your part of the responsibility of a father? Keep saying that I am not worthy to be the mother of rice grains, are you worthy to be his father? ”

Zhou Yu was unmoved, raised his eyebrows and said, "I didn't say that you are not worthy of being the mother of rice grains, you have a misunderstanding." However, when you get to court, once our lawyer presents your past information, you might as well see who the judge's scale will favor. ”

"Uncle, are you arguing with your mother?" Mi Li interjected as if he didn't understand.

Zhou Yu softened his expression and replied, "No, I'm just discussing things with your mother." After the words fell, he raised his eyes to look at me again, "In addition, it is best to tell Mi Li my identity, you let our father and son meet each other and not recognize each other, and this alone will also become a consideration point for the judge's trial." I'm sure you don't want this to come out of my mouth to rice grains. ”

He took a deep look at me, then turned and got into the car and drove away.

My brow furrowed slowly, why was his attitude so strange, and why did he come to remind me of this? has already hired a famous lawyer who is enough to compete with Tang Jin, so he is determined to be able to fight for the custody of Mi Li?

The two points he raised were crucial, and they would really be the point of attack for me in court.

If my shortcomings are revealed one by one, then even if I am Mi Li's mother, I will lose my innate advantage.

Back upstairs, I was so distracted that I accidentally ignited a fire while frying the shrimp, causing the rice grains to scream.

I was also taken aback and put out the fire in time, but the kitchen was in shambles. When I finished packing up and went out, I happened to hear Mi Li complaining: "Uncle, the house was almost on fire just now." ”

I rushed over, snatched Mi Li's phone watch, and pressed the power off button.

Mi Li stared at me blankly for a few seconds, and then burst into tears. I was upset and tried to get him to stop crying, but I didn't control the volume, and Mi Li cried louder instead.

I picked him up and walked to the room, but he struggled the hardest I've ever been, almost holding him and letting him slip off of him. After entering the room, I put him on the bed, turned around and walked out, and I slammed the door shut, only to hear the child crying heartbreakingly. It's not for nothing when I discipline rice grains from childhood to adulthood, but it's rare to make such a big move.

At that time, when I heard him and Zhou Yu make a phone call to report the fire accident just now, my heart sank, and my behavior became anxious without thinking. Because anything bad at this moment will become evidence that the other party will take to the court and list me as an unqualified mother.

Since Zhou Yu has no fear, he must be sure that he can win me.

I dialed Tang Jin's phone and asked bluntly: "Is it possible that if I tell you all the causes and circumstances of everything, you can be sure that you can win this lawsuit for me?" ”

Tang Jin didn't answer and asked: "Your son is crying?" What happened? ”

"You don't care about it for now, answer my question first."

But listen to him: "Jia Ru, if you want to win custody of your son, then learn to suppress your temper from now on." You must know that at this time, any bit of negativity in your son will become a weapon for others to attack you. Listen to me, now go and coax your son not to cry, or your neighbor will become a witness to time. ”

My heart sank, and I had to admit that Tang Jin's words were right. Immediately put down the phone and walked into the room, and saw Mi Li crying with tears in her eyes, and snot also flowed onto her clothes. When he saw me enter the door, he cried even louder, but there was hope in his eyes.

My heart suddenly softened, and then I was distressed, so I stepped forward in three steps and two steps to hug the rice grain, and apologized first: "It's my mother's mistake, my mother shouldn't have snatched your watch." ”

When Mi Li heard this, he threw himself into my arms. But gradually, his crying became quieter, and I comforted me softly: "Mi Li, my mother sometimes makes mistakes in her brain, can you forgive my mother?" ”

Mi Li raised her head from my arms, her eyes lit up from crying just now, "Mom, I forgive you. Then he said in embarrassment, "But if I stain my mother's clothes, will my mother be angry?" ”

As soon as I looked down, I saw that he had wiped tears and snot on my chest, and it was a mess. It's really angry and funny, this kid deliberately uses this method to take revenge on me, how can he hold a grudge against his father?

After a pause, he realized that when he remembered Zhou Yu's revenge, he was not too extreme, but compared rice grains with him very naturally.
